How To Prepare Your Bathroom When You Have Guests Over?
Your bathroom experiences more visits than usual when friends and family groups drop by, or come over to stay. Such a situation means more foot traffic and increased cleaning, not to mention stocking up on the necessary items such as toilet paper and soap to create a pleasant environment for your guests. Here, we have created a complete guide on how to clean your bathroom with smart bathroom cleaning tools and bathroom cleaning chemicals to give your guests a comfortable experience.
All easy clean bathroom ideas encompass four main parts of the cleaning process. Cleaning, maintaining, stocking and decorating.
Cleaning Your Washroom Space
A bad smelling toilet is not only embarrassing, but offensive to visitors and guests. Pumping a few squirts of hand wash into the toilet bowl after cleaning it properly will leave it looking cleaner and smelling fresh. Most hand wash products have a pleasantly strong fragrance and helps in creating a pleasant scent. You can also use some bathroom cleaning items which contain fragrance to leave your toilet and bathroom smelling fresh.
When it comes to cleaning it’s important to wash the floor and mouldings, focus on the grout between shower tiles, clean soap dishes and toothbrush holders, bath mats, not forgetting the mirror. Wipe down the walls and wash any laundry. Fresh fluffy towels instantly uplift any bathroom. Also, make sure that a toilet brush and toilet papers are readily available.
Maintaining Washroom Accessories
Having guests over is a perfect excuse to do the regular maintenance you’ve been putting off and to check for any plumbing fixes. Make sure that all the taps are working fine and there aren’t any drips or noisy pipework. When it comes to the toilet bowl, flush the tank and the bathroom sink should also be checked for leaks, rust, or dust. Changing the shower curtain can also bring an instant uplift to your bathroom. Finally, double check the towel hangers to make sure they are tightly secured to the wall.
Stocking Up Toiletries
To help your guests avoid embarrassing situations, keep your washroom stocked up with toilet paper, tissues, sanitary items and paper hand towels to avoid guests having to ask for items. Keep these toiletries in direct sight at obvious locations so they can be easily accessed.
You can also add some commonly forgotten items which add extra comfort and convenience for your guests such as: cotton balls, toothpaste, toothbrush, dental floss, razor, shampoo, conditioner, body soap, contact lens solution, body moisturizer, nail file, nail polish remover etc. Think along the lines of a hotel room!
Decorating Your Washroom
No doubt, bathrooms are the mostly ignored space when it comes to decorating your home seasonally. But think about some themed-décor if you are having guests for a weekend or for a holiday. Adding some nice decorations can be fun and appealing but remember to choose carefully. Bathrooms are often the smallest room in the house and should not be full of clutter.
Simply choosing a color theme and adding some fresh cut flowers or foliage can make a huge difference. Using an LED candle or twinkle lights will also add a spa ambience. Avoid overly scented or fragranced candles as they may be overpowering. Some people also have serious allergies to strong fragrances which might cause migraines or rashes. So, always be cautious while infusing your home with any scent or aroma and use natural products where possible.
Giving your guests a good and clean bathroom experience will add to their satisfaction and you can bask in the compliments which come from hosting happy guests, whether they are family or an AirBnB review!
